    gluten free blondies are the ultimate indulgent treat. these blondies are gluten free and topped with sea salt for that perfect sweet and salty combo.

    these are the BEST blondies ever. i know that's a big statement but i stand by it!

    i tested this recipe three times to get the perfect texture and flavor for you. a blondie shouldn't be cakey but fudgy, dense and rich with a thin, crinkly top.

    basically a cookie but in brownie form!

    luckily, this recipe is incredibly easy to make. so easy that i've made this batter in just 8 minutes before. in addition, you only need one bowl to whip up the batter. easy clean up and less dishes!

    filled with chocolate chips, these gluten free blondies are the perfect, late night treat. they're indulgent and can satisfy any sweet tooth. however, the touch that brings these blondies to the next level is the flaky sea salt on top...

    perfection!

    main ingredients

    • eggs
    • brown sugar
    • butter
    • kefir or regular buttermilk
    • vanilla extract
    • gluten free flour or regular all purpose flour
    • chocolate chips
    gluten free blondies ingredients laid out on the table

    what is kefir?

    kefir is fermented milk of a cow, goat, or sheep.

    why is kefir used in this recipe?

    kefir adds to the richness of the blondies but also creates the perfect texture. the creaminess of the kefir creates the ultimate gooey inside of the blondie.

    kefir substitutions

    • buttermilk (recommended swap 1:1 ratio)
    • yogurt thinned out with milk (for 1 cup of kefir use ¾ cup of yogurt + ¼ cup milk)
    • melted butter (1:1 ratio) + ¼ tsp baking powder
    gluten free blondies batter in a bowl without chocolate chips

    frequently asked questions

    what is a blondie?

    i like to think of blondies as cookies but in brownie form. thicker and more fudgy-like texture than your typical cookie but just as delicious!

    can i use regular all purpose flour for this recipe?

    yes! use a 1:1 ratio for all purpose flour. i do not recommend using oat flour, coconut flour or almond flour as these have not been tested and may affect the final result.

    can i add other mix-ins?

    you can add any mix-ins you'd like! for example, any type of chocolate chips/chunks, nuts, nut butter, seeds, candy, sprinkles and more!

    do i have to use kefir to make these blondies?

    i wouldn't say that you have to, but i highly recommend it! if you don't have kefir or prefer not to use it, see the suggestions above!

    how should these blondies be stored?

    store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. or in the fridge for up to 5 days! however, they probably won't last that long!
